Chapter 185 Dare to ask, folks and elders!Dare to fight against heaven? 【Ask monthly ticket】

Outside Jiangzhong County.

in the military camp.

Gu Jinnian was reviewing official documents from various places.

Right now, the earthquake disaster in Longxi County has been considered to be half stabilized. The prince came in person to call on the people, and the disaster relief operations were handled in an orderly manner.

Nanyue County is quite satisfactory, and the snow disaster rescue is relatively slow, but the problem is not a big problem, as long as the snow water does not melt, then the problem is not a big problem.

The biggest trouble is Donglin County, the fire problem is still very serious, the number of rain-seeking talismans is not large, there are only ten in the front and back of the fairy gate, and about twenty in the Great Xia Dynasty.

This rain-seeking talisman is an important weapon in the country. When there is a severe drought, the rain-seeking talisman is a life-saving thing.

However, Xianmen didn't give much, which was not expected. The relationship between Daxia Dynasty and Xianmen was not bad. Although Xianmen needed rain charms, it should not be urgently needed by Daxia Dynasty.

"I need to write a letter, I should still have some face in Xianmen."

Gu Jinnian muttered to himself.

After all, I am a fairy root, even if I don't major in immortality, people who want to come to the fairy gate will give me a little face.

In the time of the current catastrophe, face doesn't matter, the main thing is to save the people.

Also at this time.

A voice sounded outside.

"Report!"

"Master Hou, Prime Minister Li Shan brought the twelve great Confucian scholars from Yushitai to visit Lord Hou. Will you meet him?"

As the sound outside sounded.

Gu Jinnian did not put down the official document, but spoke.

"Let Mr. Fang entertain them one or two."

Gu Jinnian spoke up, he was not in a hurry to see Li Shan and the others, but let Fang Jingcheng handle it, firstly to let Fang Jingcheng get acquainted with the officialdom.

After the great summer disaster is completely over, Fang Jingcheng will inevitably go to the capital with him, and Fang Jingcheng will have to deal with many things in the court at that time.

It's nice to get in touch now.

"As ordered."

Soon, Gu Jinnian continued to deal with the official documents, and part of the extraterrestrial flint above Daxia had been found. Su Wenjing joined forces with many great Confucian scholars to block the extraterrestrial flint with Confucian formations and awe-inspiring righteousness.

This is good news, at least after locking the location, even if it really can't be stopped, at least the people can be evacuated, the buildings are destroyed, they can be rebuilt, and it will be a little troublesome if people die.

"Master Hou."

"The lower official has something to report."

Regarding this matter, a voice sounded, it was Zhou Man's voice.

"Enter."

soon.

Zhou Man walked into the army camp, bowed to Gu Jinnian, and then spoke.

"Master Hou, the 1000 people you requested have already set off in the Nineteenth Mansion. If there is no accident, they will arrive in the mansion before noon tomorrow."

Zhou Man made a sound, confirming the matter.

"it is good."

Gu Jinnian nodded, and after processing the official documents in his hand, he put the official documents aside, stood up and looked at Zhou Mandao.

"It's full week."

"Benhou asks you something."

"Do you want to live?"

When Gu Jinnian spoke, he looked at Zhou Man with an extremely calm expression.

Hearing this, Zhou Man couldn't help being taken aback.

He felt like he had heard wrong.

After being stunned for a while, Zhou Man directly knelt on the ground.

"Master Hou, it was just a mistake in one thought before I stepped down as an official. I don't dare to say that I work hard in Jiangzhong County, but it can be regarded as a lot of hard work. Lord Hou can ask the people."

"There are some mistakes. I have made some mistakes, but I definitely don't have any common people. Jiangzhong County itself is a poor county, and I have studied for a few years. If it weren't for the fact that too many people were involved this time."

"The lower officials really don't dare to act recklessly. If the Lord Hou gives the lower officials a way to survive, from now on, the lower officials will only be led by the Lord Hou. The lower officials dare to make life and death oaths, and speak with Confucianism and righteousness."

Zhou Man has been an official for so many years, how could he not understand Gu Jinnian's words?How could he not understand what Gu Jinnian meant.

To be honest, he completely believed that Gu Jinnian could kill him, and he was the kind who could kill him whenever he wanted.

Because the person standing in front of him is the First Heavenly Marquis of Great Xia, the eldest grandson of the Duke of Zhen, and the sage of later generations of Confucianism and Taoism. These three titles can suppress him to death.

Wanting to kill oneself is simply easier than trampling an ant to death.

If Gu Jinnian hadn't been the sage of Confucianism and Taoism, even if he hadn't made any mistakes, Gu Jinnian could kill himself at will, so as to calm the hearts of the people and determine the will of the people.

So he didn't doubt that Gu Jinnian dared to kill himself.

If I ask now, I just want to give myself a way out, and it depends on whether I am obedient or not.

"This Marquis can give you a way out, but only if you are willing to obey."

Gu Jinnian said that he did have someone investigate Zhou Man. It cannot be said that Zhou Man is a good official, but at least he did not make too many mistakes. The public's reputation for Zhou Man is not bad.

Naturally, Gu Jinnian gave him a chance.

"willing."

"Master Hou, I will definitely be willing."

"Hou Ye, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart, your status is so lofty, if before the matter of Wang Wei, if you were looking for a lower official, the lower official would be willing, let alone now?"

Zhou Man's words are true. Who knows Gu Jinnian's current status?
Such a person, who wouldn't want to be his subordinate?

However, when Wang Wei was mentioned, Gu Jinnian's face turned cold.

"If it's not for the people of Jiangzhong County, just because of Wang Wei's matter, you should die."

When he opened his mouth, Zhou Man didn't dare to speak, and lowered his head feeling extremely nervous.

"Wang Wei died because of the people of Jiangzhong County. This Marquis is giving you this opportunity now. He is also considering the people, not that this Marquis wants to accept you."

"This Marquis will tell you three things. If you can agree to these three things, this Marquis will spare you your life. If you cannot do these three things, this Marquis will definitely make your life worse than death."

Gu Jinnian spoke with a cold voice.

"Please rest assured, Lord Hou."

Zhou Man spoke firmly.

"First, this Marquis wants you to guard Jiangzhong County and work hard to restore agricultural products. The people are the main people. This Marquis will send people to Jiangzhong County. If you hear anything bad, you will be hacked to death. Bar."

"Secondly, the Marquis wants you to take good care of Wang Wei's family and not make them suffer any grievances. Of course, if they do something wrong, you don't need to protect them, just take care of them."

"Thirdly, go to find Hou Jun and tell him your current situation, and say that after the disaster is over, I will kill you. You can ask Hou Jun to help you find a way to escape this calamity. It is best to let King Ning come forward. Put on a show with you, understand?"

Gu Jinnian said that these three things are very important.

After tomorrow, he will be able to solve the difficulties in Jiangzhong County.

But this kind of solution still requires people to do their best here. Gu Jinnian is worried about transferring people from the imperial court. It will take too much time to waste too much time in selecting talents from Jiangzhong County.

And Zhou Man became Gu Jinnian's best candidate.

This guy was going to be executed by me, but now I give him a chance, no matter whether a person is good or bad, at least after suffering a loss, he will definitely have a long memory.

Gu Jinnian doesn't expect Zhou Man to do his best in this life, at least the first three years will be fine, right?
Working hard in the past three years is also a kind of atonement. If he handles it properly within three years, everything will be easy to talk about.

Three years.

Gu Jinnian will make Jiangzhong County the number one county in Daxia.

This is his bottom line.

At that time, if Zhou Man made any mistakes, Gu Jinnian could directly deal with it and kill him if he said so.

Second, after Wang Wei died, the only thing Gu Jinnian could do was to make the people of Jiangzhong County live better, and at the same time take care of his family. This care cannot be taken care of with just a few words.

It's okay to give orders by yourself, and the people below will do it well, but it is very likely that you will take care of it a little in the past few years, and then you will not take care of it later. This situation is normal.

It would be nice if Zhou Man could handle it, at least it would be a kind of atonement.

The last one is a pawn he buried.

"Master Hou, the lower officials know."

"It's just that if I ask the subordinates to find Hou Jun, I'm afraid Hou Jun won't believe me."

Zhou Man spoke out, not because he was unwilling, but because he felt that Hou Jun would not believe him.

"He wouldn't believe you before, but now he will."

"He took the initiative to ask King Ning to send relief food. He wanted to gain public opinion, but he was self-defeating. Not only did he fail to win public opinion, he also wasted a lot of food. They couldn't take this food away, and it was already under the control of the people of this Marquis."

"At this time, he must be angry and angry. It's just right for you to go to him."

Gu Jinnian spoke up.

"That's the truth, but Lord Hou, even if this Lord Hou agrees to me, he may lose his mind for a while because of embarrassment. He will definitely not tell the subordinates some important things."

Zhou Man was a little puzzled.

"You tell him that my army rations are actually mixed with some medicines. After eating them, the common people can indeed accumulate energy. Tell him this secret, and he will naturally believe you."

"However, this Marquis knows that he will not trust you completely, but he will test you. Time can solve many things."

When Gu Jinnian spoke up, he sent Zhou Man there, not necessarily to learn some big secrets, sometimes with a chess piece, at least he could do a lot of things.

"The officer understands."

"Please don't worry, Lord Hou, the next official will definitely handle it properly."

Zhou Man spoke out, his tone extremely firm.

"Go."

"Remember, this matter is not the most important thing, the first thing is, and then the second thing, and the third thing is not the most important thing."

Gu Jinnian specially reminded Zhou Man, so that this guy would not be confused about the priorities.

"Please rest assured, Lord Hou."

Zhou Man nodded.

Soon, Zhou Man walked out of the camp and let out a long breath.

To be honest, this feeling of surviving after a catastrophe is really ups and downs, but it is precisely because of this incident that Zhou Man is in a state of tension in his heart, and he wants to do things well.

Only in this way can one's own life be saved.

To save one's life is not only for oneself, but also for one's family. If one really dies, will one's offspring including one's wife, etc., be able to live well?

Maybe because of some things, my whole family will be silenced, which is not impossible.

After Gu Jinnian left Jiangzhong County, this might really happen.

But now, since he was relying on Gu Jinnian, even if something happened to him, Gu Jinnian would choose to help him.

So he was completely on Gu Jinnian's side, and he even had to make great efforts to make Gu Jinnian value him.

in this way.

About half an hour later.

Finally, Li Shan and others came to the army camp.

"The truth is that I have seen Lord Hou."

"I'll wait, I've seen Lord Hou."

Li Shan, one of the twelve Confucian scholars at Yushitai, walked into the camp one after another, and bowed to Gu Jinnian.

"I have seen you all."

"I'm busy with business, so I can't meet you at the first time, please forgive me."

Gu Jinnian stood up and spoke, appearing more gentle towards Li Shan and the others.

"Your Majesty, you are being polite. The great summer disaster is the main issue. It would be a sin for me to disturb you."

"Yes, we are really ashamed to know that Master Hou is dealing with official documents."

When everyone spoke, they were not angry at all, but were replaced by guilt.

"Why are you here?"

Gu Jinnian didn't say anything, and asked everyone what they were doing here.

"Master Hou, recently there have been some rumors that Master Hou abused the people. Of course, we don't believe it, but there are no storms without waves, so His Majesty sent me to investigate. If there is something unfounded, we will definitely tell the world. It can be regarded as correcting this unhealthy trend. "

Someone spoke and told Gu Jinnian the purpose of their visit.

And Li Shan has not spoken, in a state of silence.

"It's a good thing to have doubts. Feel free to do so, but after making inquiries, you must prepare time to go back. The Marquis does not want outsiders to intervene in disaster relief."

Gu Jinnian didn't take it seriously, this situation was not special, but there was one thing to remind, it was not their turn to deal with the disaster relief.

"Don't worry, Lord Hou."

"I will not mess around."

Everyone nodded.

"Master Hou."

However, at this moment, Li Shan finally spoke out.

"What's the matter, Mr. Li?"

Gu Jinnian looked at Li Shan and said curiously.

"Just now I heard from one of Hou Ye's subordinates that Hou Ye will be able to solve the difficulties in Jiangzhong County tomorrow. Is this true?"

Li Shan opened his mouth and asked Gu Jinnian.

Fang Jingcheng said this before.

"kindness."

Gu Jinnian looked indifferent.

As soon as this remark came out, the expressions of the Twelve Great Confucians changed. They were already surprised when they heard Fang Jingcheng say it before, but now they heard Gu Jinnian speak, how could they not be shocked?
"Master Hou, you can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. The old man knows that Master Hou is dedicated to the people. No one wants to encounter this disaster. Master Hou wants to cheer up the hearts of the people. This is a good thing, but if you promise something that should not be promised , this is not a good thing."

Li Shan spoke out, reminding Gu Jinnian kindly.

It's just that after saying this, Gu Jinnian looked gentle.

"This Marquis is fully responsible for the disaster relief. Whether you say it or not, it should have nothing to do with Li Xiang, right?"

Gu Jinnian looked gentle.

And Li Shan didn't show any expression, just spoke out.

"Naturally, it has nothing to do with the old man. It's just that if you say something like this, it will have a certain impact on the people. If you really do it, it's a good thing. If you can't do it, I'm afraid the people will have other ideas about the court. .”

"Master Hou, please be careful."

Li Shan made a sound, and said with a fake smile.

"Is what the Marquis said false?"

Gu Jinnian opened his mouth lightly, with a smile on his face.

After saying this, Li Shan was completely silent, but the Twelve Great Confucianists couldn't help being extremely excited.

"Master Hou, if you can really solve the difficulties in Jiangzhong County tomorrow, apart from other things, the old man will definitely ask His Majesty to travel around and spread the merits for Lord Hou."

"Yes, Lord Hou, if you can really solve the difficulties in Jiangzhong County, I will also go to spread the merits for Lord Hou."

"The drought in Jiangzhong County has affected tens of millions of people. If Lord Hou can settle down, it will be of great merit."

"Master Hou, if you really solve it, from now on, when the old man sees someone, he will tell you about it. If anyone dares to say that you are fine in the future, the old man will be the first to kill him."

"Yes, Lord Hou, you know that Yushitai handles it impartially. If someone reports it, I will come forward to solve it, but you have solved the problem in Jiangzhong County. If anyone in the court dares to report Lord Hou , the old man will investigate whether there is any problem with him first, and then solve the matter of Lord Hou."

These great Confucians spoke one by one. They really didn't flatter Gu Jinnian, but from the bottom of their hearts.

Everyone in the court knew what the disaster in Jiangzhong County meant.

First, there is the food crisis for tens of millions of people.

Then there was a problem in Jiangzhong County, and there was also a problem within the Great Xia Dynasty, and there was a big problem as a whole.

For these great scholars, if Gu Jinnian can really solve the difficulties of the people in Jiangzhong County, no matter what the Great Xia Dynasty is, this merit is worthy of admiration.

As a scholar, it is natural to respect.

Seeing the Twelve Great Confucianists like this, Li Shan had no expression on his face, but an expressionless face meant many things.

"Everyone, at noon tomorrow, you will know everything."

"Get some rest early."

Gu Jinnian made a little salute. Gu Jinnian still respected these great Confucian scholars. The Holy Ruler has established virtue, and Confucius Sheng has also reduced the talents of scholars all over the world. If they have not been reduced, it means that they have moral character.

Then it is reasonable to respect one or two.

"Tomorrow at noon, right? Well, the old man will wait."

"Okay, noon tomorrow."

Everyone nodded and then left together.

After everyone leaves.

Gu Jinnian also walked out of the barracks, looking at the sky with an extremely calm expression.

Whether or not Jiangzhong County's difficulties can be resolved depends on tomorrow.

And at the same time.

Hundreds of scholars also sneaked into various parts of Jiangzhong County.

This group of scholars almost racked their brains and questioned them in various ways, but the results they got were almost uniform.

That is, all the people praised Gu Jinnian, and no one said that Gu Jinnian was not good.

This made these scholars dumbfounded.

In the end, these scholars could only reveal their identities and tell them that they were sent by the imperial court, so they don't need to worry too much about what they have to say.

As soon as this was said, the people spoke more enthusiastically.

"Are you from the imperial court?"

"That's a good thing, hurry up and tell the emperor that Lord Hou is really a good man, and you must ask His Majesty to give him a promotion."

"Yes, yes, Lord Hou is really a good man, he deserves to be promoted."

The answers of the common people silenced these scholars again.

In the end, these scholars couldn't bear it.

"Everyone, this Gu Jinnian is not here, so you can say whatever you want. If there is something wrong with him, just say it directly. Don't worry, we are definitely not from Gu Jinnian."

Someone spoke and said in a low voice.

However, when these words were said, the surrounding people frowned one by one.

"Good guy, are you the Hou Ye's political enemy? Do you want us to belittle the Hou Ye?"

"Are you still human?"

Someone noticed what was going on, and couldn't help but speak out immediately, angrily scolding the other party.

"You bastards, Master Hou beheaded corrupt officials for the sake of us people, and even gave our people food. How come you still have opinions on Master Hou? Are you human?"

"During the disaster relief, you were not there. Now that Lord Hou is stabilizing the disaster situation in our Jiangzhong County, you want to cause trouble? Are you still human?"

"Fathers and elders, there must be something wrong with these guys. Catch them and take them all to the army camp. Master Hou is so kind to us, we can't let this kind of villain succeed."

A sound rang out.

The common people were really outraged. Everyone could clearly remember what Gu Jinnian did.

These people didn't come here to remember Gu Jinnian's achievements, but they are still trying their best to remember Gu Jinnian's bad?

How to keep the people from being angry?
All of a sudden, many common people mobilized their hands and directly arrested these scholars, regardless of what these scholars said.

All were detained in the army camp.

When Gu Jinnian found out about this, he couldn't help laughing and crying, but he didn't show up, but asked Li Shan to redeem him.

When Li Shan heard about this, his expression was a little calm, but he didn't come forward, but asked the great Confucian from Yushitai to come forward.

Inside King Ning's camp.

Hou Jun had a white belt tied around his head, and he had some injuries.

What happened today made him really uncomfortable. He thought it was a harvest of public opinion, but he didn't expect that he would become a joke.

He was angry not because the people didn't eat it, but because he brought up this matter himself, and he couldn't bear the result.

King Ning would not punish him, but he lost some weight in King Ning's heart.

This is what hurts him the most.

Of course, the main reason was that he hadn't made any mistakes for more than ten years. This time he was really uncomfortable, and he did some wrong things in a moment of anger.

"Gu Jinnian said that the crisis in Jiangzhong County can be settled tomorrow, what does Mr. Hou think?"

Li Shan spoke, he was very calm, sitting in front of Hou Jun.

"tomorrow?"

"Ten days later, he won't be able to do it."

"How to solve the crisis in Jiangzhong County? With a few words?"

"Unless Gu Jinnian can provide all the people in Jiangzhong County with one-year rations and ensure that all the people in Jiangzhong County have no worries about food and clothing, otherwise, why can he solve the problem?"

"Before I came, I checked the rice fields, and they were extremely dry. There was only a little water, which was not enough to feed the crops."

"Who knows how long this severe drought will last?"

"Furthermore, Gu Jinnian did a wrong thing, an extremely wrong thing."

When Hou Jun opened his mouth, he didn't believe what Gu Jinnian said.

"What's wrong?"

Li Shan asked curiously.

"Master Xiang should have heard that the people of Jiangzhong County don't eat big fish and meat, but only eat some rice that Gu Jinnian prepared for them?"

Hou Jun asked.

"I know that."

Li Shan nodded. When he came, he had heard it said.

"Just now when Zhou Man came to see me, he told me a secret. Gu Jinnian said that this is the food specially provided by the royal family, but in fact it is just mixed with a lot of precious medicinal materials, so it tastes extremely delicious and replenishes human essence, so these people mistakenly think that It can prolong life or something."

"These are all fakes."

"But what I have to say is that this rice is mixed with some medicine, and it is really delicious. Gu Jinnian wants to deceive the people, but what he doesn't know is that after the people eat this rice, they don't want to eat other rice anymore."

"This is also a hidden danger."

Hou Jun opened his mouth and told this matter.

"Zhou Man?"

"Do you believe what he said?"

Li Shan opened his mouth and asked like this.

"I don't trust this person, but I trust you in this matter. Otherwise, what kind of special imperial rice does the Great Xia Dynasty have? As for the big golden dragon rice, ordinary people can't eat it. Mr. Xiang should know about this matter, right?"

Hou Jun said, he didn't believe Zhou Man at all, but he believed in this matter.

"kindness."

"That's true."

"Then what does he want to do tomorrow?"

Li Shan frowned.

As soon as these words came out, Hou Jun took a deep breath and said.

"Zhou Man told me."

"Gu Jinnian's plan is very simple. He wants to take advantage of the gimmick of this food, take out ordinary ears of rice, and tell the people that these ears of rice can grow special food for the royal family."

"In this way, the common people will be extremely happy, and then they will plant it one after another."

"Think about it, if you do this, if the drought only lasts for two or three months, Gu Jinnian will really be able to solve it."

"But the problem is, Gu Jinnian would never have imagined that this severe drought would last at least a year."

"In this year's time, what transfer can last for a year without relying on water?"

"But I have to say that Gu Jinnian is really good at grasping people's hearts. There is really no solution to this plan. As long as God cooperates, it is a pity that due to the fire in Donglin County, all the rain charms were sent to Donglin County."

"Besides, Xianmen is not willing to continue to give new rain-seeking talismans. Even if Gu Jinnian has one or two on hand, it doesn't mean much. He can't beg for a heavy rain for the entire Jiangzhong County, right?"

Hou Jun spoke out, looking extremely confident.

"It turned out to be this trick."

"The old man said, why did he dare to boast so much, it turned out to be like this."

"Indeed, it is too powerful to grasp people's hearts."

"It seems that Gu Jinnian hopes to temporarily stabilize Jiangzhong County, and then free up his hands to solve disasters in other places."

"After the disaster in other places is over, we will focus on solving Jiangzhong County. It's amazing, it's really amazing."

Li Shan was filled with emotion, thinking that Gu Jinnian's method was extremely powerful.

"really."

"This person's intelligence is really high, but what he doesn't know is that the situation in Longxi County is better, and Donglin County is in a big crisis. Without the rain-seeking talisman, it's useless for anyone to come."

"As for Nanyue County, as long as the snow melts and the flood hits, it will be the real horror. Not to mention the people in Nanyue County will suffer, but the people on both sides of the river will suffer."

"Jiangzhong County is a huge hidden danger. He wants to free up his hands to solve these things, but when he solves them, he will find that this is an unsolvable disaster at all."

"At that time, when the people of Jiangzhong County watched the crops die, they would explode completely. Even if Gu Jinnian came again, they would not be able to suppress the anger of the people."

"Using the hearts of the people, once you make a mistake, you will be backlashed by the people."

Hou Jun's expression was cold, and he didn't like Gu Jinnian at all.

Li Shan didn't say a word, after all, he didn't know about the future.

"Then let's talk about it tomorrow."

In the end Li Shan nodded, and then said nothing more.

in this way.

Until the next day.

time.

In the city of Jiangzhong County.

Countless people gathered in the center of Jiangzhong County. This is the stage. Because of the disaster, the stage was closed. All the people from the nineteen prefectures were arranged by the government to come here, and people from all directions were also from the prefecture.

Everyone didn't know what happened, they only heard that Gu Jinnian had something to tell everyone.

Hearing that Gu Jinnian had something to ask everyone, the common people took the initiative to come and wait for Gu Jinnian.

It's five quarters.

In the army camp.

Gu Jinnian slowly walked out of the camp. He was dressed plainly and surrounded by soldiers to protect him.

Li Ji, Gu Ningya and others stood on both sides.

Soon, from the main gate, Gu Jinnian walked into the Fucheng.

"Master Hou is here."

"The saint is coming."

"Get out of the way, Master Hou is here."

"Get out of the way."

At this moment, one after another voices sounded, but they were not the voices of the soldiers, but the voices of the common people, and they took the initiative to step aside.

Along the way, Gu Jinnian looked at the people, nodded from time to time, with a gentle expression, making the people feel kind.

In the end, Gu Jinnian walked onto the stage alone.

Step onto the stage.

In all directions, there are all common people, and all eyes are on him.

Feel the eyes of the people.

Gu Jinnian looked calm.

Everyone was quiet, waiting for Gu Jinnian to speak.

A quarter of an hour passed.

When the time came, Gu Jinnian spoke up.

"My fellow villagers and fathers."

"Have you been eating well in the past few days?"

He smiled and asked everyone.

At the beginning, there were no rhetoric or sensational words, but directly asked how everyone was eating.

"Good food."

"I'm very full. I've never had such a full meal in these years."

"Master Hou, the food is so good, I have never eaten such a good thing in my life."

The voices of the people sounded, and everyone smiled.

After getting the answer, Gu Jinnian continued to speak.

"Then I'll ask you all, do you want to continue eating in the future?"

Gu Jinnian continued to ask.

As soon as these words were said, the people's answers became more intense.

"I want to, I definitely want to."

"Master Hou, if I can eat this kind of rice every day in the future, I won't eat a single bite of food."

"Can you still eat it every day? Master Hou, we dare not think about such a thing."

"Not to mention eating it every day, even if we can eat it once a month, we are satisfied."

"To tell you the truth, if you weren't generous, Lord Hou, we would never even want to eat this kind of food in our life. We will eat it every day in the future? We don't ask for it, and we can't afford it."

The common people opened their mouths one after another, hearing whether they want to eat it every day in the future, they must want to.

Don't talk about it every day.

Eat every meal.

No side dishes are fine.

It's just that everyone understands in their hearts that it's a good thing to be able to eat now in the year of disaster relief, but still want to eat it every day?
Kind of impractical.

Gu Jinnian was very satisfied with these answers.

"Everyone."

Gu Jinnian spoke, this time his voice was extremely loud and his expression was extremely serious.

"In the 13th year of Yongsheng, on April [-]th, there was a severe drought in Jiangzhong County, and all the crops were destroyed overnight."

"The imperial court was shocked. For a while, no one in the court, civil and military, dared to make a move."

"The tens of thousands of people in Jiangzhong County are not unwilling to make decisions, but they dare not make decisions. It involves the lives of tens of thousands of people, and no one dares to speak nonsense."

"Because everyone knows that the severe drought in Jiangzhong County has not been dealt with, even if it is only one place, then this place will disappear."

"Everyone will leave their homes and become refugees in the eyes of the people in other prefectures."

"But Gu knows that no one wants to leave their hometown, and no one wants to be looked down upon."

"No one wants to starve to death."

"So Gu is here."

"The reason why Gu was able to come is to thank His Majesty for believing in me completely, and also to thank Manchu Civil and Military for giving me the greatest support."

"And now, Gu needs everyone to do one thing."

"As long as everyone does it."

"Gu can swear an oath here."

"one!"

"As long as everyone supports Gu and promises to solve the food disaster in Jiangzhong County within one year, from now on, whether it is ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, or ten thousand years, Jiang Zhongerlang will no longer be afraid of lack of food."

"two!"

"Jiangzhong County is the poorest county in the Great Xia Dynasty. As long as everyone supports Gu, Gu can guarantee that Jiangzhong County will become one of the richest counties in the Great Xia Dynasty in one year at the earliest and three years at the latest. One, not even one."

"three!"

"As long as everyone supports Gu, Gu can guarantee that from now on, everyone in Jiangzhong County can eat this kind of good rice."

When Gu Jinnian spoke out, he made three major oaths.

This made all the people remain silent. This silence was not because of distrust, but because they didn't know what Gu Jinnian was sure about.

The people naturally believed in Gu Jinnian, and it was true to say that it was unfounded.

"Master Hou, how do you want us to support you? Just ask us directly, don't even talk about making us rich, as long as we have a bite of food, we will not starve to death, and we will listen to you in everything."

Someone made a voice, shouted loudly, supporting Gu Jinnian, but also curious about what kind of support Gu Jinnian wanted.

"That's right, Master Hou said, we can do whatever we are asked to do."

"Master Hou, as long as we ordinary people can do something, we will do it, as long as you ask."

"Yes, Master Hou, what's the matter, you can tell me directly."

The common people opened their mouths one after another, they were curious about what Gu Jinnian wanted them to do.

If it was something they could do, they would definitely do it, but they were afraid that they would not be able to do what Gu Jinnian asked them to do.

Hear the cries of the people.

Gu Jinnian glanced at Li Ji who was in the audience, and the latter immediately brought a plate with ears of rice on it.

"Everyone."

"What Gu asked you to do is actually simple, that is, farming."

"This thing is called Daxia Longsui. The rice that everyone eats grows from this rice ear."

"After today, Gu will ask the soldiers to prepare a large number of ears of rice and distribute them around the fertile fields. Everyone will get the seeds and plant them directly, just like usual farming."

"As long as it is planted, this big summer dragon tassel does not require much water, is drought-resistant, and grows once every four months."

"The rice planted is twice that of normal summer rice. In other words, after one year, compared with the previous two crops of rice, the harvest is nearly twice as much."

"Moreover, this kind of rice is the highest quality rice in Daxia. If it is sold in the market, it will cost at least 30 taels of silver per stone, and it is priceless."

"Gu has calculated that normal rice costs five taels of silver per stone, but if this kind of rice is planted, it costs 30 taels of silver per stone."

"A normal family can harvest at least 100 taels a year. After deducting taxes and food, the profit is about [-] taels."

"And if you plant this kind of ears of rice, you will earn at least a thousand taels of silver a year."

"You have money, and the county also has money. When the time comes, use this money to build bridges, expand roads, and open waterways. At that time, Jiangzhong County will have one month."

"One year at the earliest, three years at the latest, Jiangzhong County will definitely become one of the most prosperous counties in the Great Xia Dynasty."

"More than that, Gu can give orders directly now."

"In Jiangzhong County, there is a lot of wasteland and abandoned fields. If anyone starts farming again, the land will belong to him. The upper limit is five acres. What do you think?"

Gu Jinnian spoke.

He stated his purpose.

It is to let the people take the initiative to farm. What we have to do now is to let the people of Jiangzhong County see hope. Once they see hope, they will go crazy to farm.

As a result, in half a month, at most half a month, all the fertile fields in Jiangzhong County that suffered from severe drought will all be planted with big summer dragon ears.

Then just wait four months.

Four months later, the Daxia Longsui grew out, and the difficulties in Jiangzhong County were completely resolved.

The common people will be completely crazy when they harvest the food, and their enthusiasm will explode completely. At that time, if anyone dares to come and say a word, or spread a rumor.

Will be beaten to death by countless people.

Because this involves the interests of the common people, and more importantly, everyone wants to get rich.

really.

After Gu Jinnian finished speaking.

Quiet.

Incredibly quiet.

The audience was completely silent.

Everyone's eyes were blank, they didn't expect that Gu Jinnian would bring them such a big surprise today?

Let them support Gu Jinnian.

Thought it was a big deal.

Didn't expect it to be farming?This is their job.

Don't Gu Jinnian say, they also want to farm.

However, Gu Jinnian actually gave them the ears of rice. Let them plant such good ears of rice?
This is simply a great opportunity.

And they completely believed what Gu Jinnian said.

This kind of rice is the best rice they have ever eaten, and it sells for 30 taels of silver per stone. To be honest, they feel that they are selling at a loss and selling less.

50 taels is not too much.

And what Gu Jinnian said is correct, everyone's normal income is 100 taels a year, which is the income of ordinary farmers.

If this is the case, there is absolutely no problem with the annual income of 1000 taels of silver.

Directly double the income by ten times?
It is impossible for Jiangzhong County not to become rich.

And Gu Jinnian also overlooked one thing, that is, they used to eat five or six taels a day, but now they don't need it, one or two taels is enough, which means that their income is definitely more than that.

If it is done well, it is possible to have an annual income of 2000 taels of silver.

"Your Majesty is eternal."

After half an hour of silence, some people finally spoke up.

His voice trembled extremely.

Excited body trembling.

And as this voice sounded.

More voices also sounded.

"Lord Hou is eternal!"

"Master Hou, you really are a saint."

"Fathers and elders, hurry up and kneel down to the saint, hurry up!"

"Master Hou is really a saint, a saint."

At this moment, all the people were boiling, and they were so excited that they couldn't control themselves.

They were so excited that they were about to cry.

I thought that this disaster would make Jiangzhong County even more poor.

But now Gu Jinnian brought hope, and what he brought was not a little hope, but endless hope.

They believed in Gu Jinnian, they believed in Gu Jinnian thoroughly.

At that moment, all the people knelt down and shouted for eternity.

offstage.

After Zhou Man heard this, he couldn't help clenching his fists excitedly, if it was true that the Daxia Longsui was planted in Jiangzhong County.

The future of Jiangzhong County will be extremely prosperous.

It will be very rich.

In the distance, in the army camp, Hou Jun's eyes were full of contempt after hearing these words.

As Zhou Man said, he felt sorry for Gu Jinnian.

however.

On stage.

Gu Jinnian's voice continued to sound.

"Thanks to the love of all the folks and elders."

"It's just that there is one more thing right now."

"It needs all the folks and elders to do it."

When Gu Jinnian spoke, his tone was calm.

After saying this, the common people looked at Gu Jinnian one after another, a little curious, not knowing what else was going on.

"To resume production, we need cattle and farm tools. Gu went to the three major families in the city, but he didn't expect that these three families directly refused."

"In the year of the catastrophe, they didn't help everyone."

"Now that there is a solution, they are not willing to help,"

"What they mean is simple."

"They look down on you."

"I look down on Gu."

"They feel that you are just a group of refugees, a group of worthless people."

"So, Gu would like to ask everyone."

"If there is this Daxia Longsui, can everyone revive Jiangzhong County?"

"Can you survive this catastrophe?"

"If you can!"

"Everyone, listen to the orders of this Marquis."

"Go to the three great families!"

"Take out all their food, cattle, and farm tools."

"In the year of the catastrophe, the whole country is worried about the people of Jiangzhong County. These aristocratic families, these dignitaries, and these businessmen all have an eye for money and don't take your lives seriously."

"In that case."

"That Marquis doesn't take their lives seriously either."

"If you have ambition."

"Take out the farming tools and go to the paddy field, and show them now."

"Within half a month!"

"Let this Jiangzhong County be destroyed."

"Back to life!"

"Let everyone in Daxia see that the people of Jiangzhong County are never afraid of disasters! I, the people of Daxia, are never afraid of disaster."

"This is a war!"

"Compete with the sky."

"Dare to ask all the folks and elders, do you dare to fight against heaven?"

Gu Jinnian made a sound, and when he said this, his voice was resounding, resounding for hundreds of miles!

The blood is like a volcanic eruption!
It made all the people present completely boil.
